Welcome Michał Płachta!

Thank you for writing that book and for doing that promotion!

I did a quick look into the book on the website and have got a question:  what languages does the book cover? I saw some Java examples and Scala.

Thank you,

Bye Peter

Java and Scala! However, there are some snippets in Python, F#, and Haskell to prove that the book covers universal FP techniques that you can learn in Scala but reuse in any other language.

But again, we use Java for imperative snippets and Scala for functional snippets.
